Image: MobyGames

Splatterhouse

Gore, and little else


Genre: action - punch n kick

Publisher: NEC

Year: 1990

System: TurboGrafx-16


Gameplay Score: 3

Gameplay Notes:

Plays just like the Genesis sequel. Slow movement, laggy controls, short jump, et al.


Level Design Score: 3

Level Design Notes:

I could swear this has the same levels as its sequel. Or maybe they're just so simliar that neither one stands out. In any case, meander to the right for a little while.


Theme Score: 4

Theme Notes:

Lacks some of the oomph put in its sequel, but this game still oozes style. A bloody, gory style, but style nonetheless.


Art Style Score: 3

Art Style Notes:

Lacks detail compared to its sequel. Also, the colors used are very bright. Doesn't match the horror motif.


Audio Score: 3

Audio Notes:


Overall Score: 61

Review ID: 1500
